Create a /etc/init.d/fai-postinstall script doing what you want to do,
and linked to, for instance /etc/rc2.d/99fai-postinstall. 

The last thing the script does is to remove itself from /etc/rc2.d, i.e
it will only be run the the first boot after the installation.

We are doing a lot of stuff in a postinstall script, and we are also
doing an extra reboot when the postinst is done.
